The publie school teachers’ minimum salary law, enacted by the last Legis- lature, went into effect on tne first of June. A thorough canvass of every county in the state shows that 3,800 school teachers, over nine-tenths of them women, will receive substantial increases in salary during the coming term, as'the result of the operation of the law. Nearly $750,000 additional remuneration will be received by the teachers as the result of these increases. In nine-tenths of the districts there will be no increase of taxation on this account. The law provides that after the first day of June the minimum salary of teachers shall be $35 per month; it is made the duty of the pres- ident and secretary of each school dis- trict in the state, under oath, to make report to the superintendent of public instruction that the requirements of the law have been fully complied with. The last section arovides that “every school district of this commonwealth, failing to comply with the requirements of this act, shall forfeit its state appro- priation for the whole time during which this act has been violated.” THAR THROBBING HEADACHE Would quickly leave you, if you used Dr. King’s New Life Pills.

Of course you want to go somewhere, and when you come to look into it carefully you will find that somewhere isn’t necessarily very far away. Every city and town in Amer- ica is surrounded by numerous inter- esting somewheres. It may be only ten miles away, and a visit thereto may give you enough food for thought to last for a vear, if you go with your eyes open and your heart in a respon- sive mood to see, and absorb, and en- joy. If not, you might as well stay at home. There is no use traveling, even ten miles, unless you are keyed to the receptive pitch and are prepared to make the most of the environment into which you project yourself. But go somewhere! The world is full of delightful places to go, and they all offer inducement of one kind or another; inducements that are as va- ried as the whims and tastes of man. After you have been to somewhere and back, and had a change and a rest, you will realize more than ever before that this old earth is a pretty good place to tarry in for a few years on our journey through this vale of lights and shades. : : Who Must Foot Smallpox Bills? The Somerset Standard propounds this query and then goes on to speak as follows concerning the Semerset coun- ty situation: Must the county poor authorities, or the district establishing a quarantine of persons afflicted with infectious dis- eases, bear the expenses attending such quarantine? is a matter that must sooner gr later be determined judicial- iy in this county, as it has been in some of the other counties of the State re- cently. The expense to Somerset county within the last few years for the main- tenance of smallpox patients has been considerable and is growing. It has reached such proportions that the poor directors have tabled the last bills sub- mitted to them, and it is said those officials will refuse further payment of such claims, basing their determina- tion on the decisions of several judges in the state’ who have held that the power and duty of arresting and shut- ting up persons, carries with it the duty to feed and provide them with medical attention. In 1902 thé Somerset county poor di- rectors authorized the payment of smallpox bills amounting to $1227, and in 1903, $1053. This year over $1300 has been paid out, which includes some unpaid bills of last year. Recently the poor board received a bill from Bos- well of $923 for the'expense of main- taining a quarantine there a few weeks ago which it has refused to pay. The bill is itemized and shows that one of the physicians in attendance charged as much as $50 a day for his services. Other bills that the poor directors have refused to pay are one from Cone- maugh township for $2562, and some from the Elk Lick region amounting to several hundred dollars. Judge Lindsay of Warren county has held that “The power vested in boards of health to quarantine families and maintain hospitals implies the right to maintain and support their families during the period of quarantining, and while they are in the control of the board of health, independent of the poor laws of the State, which provides relief only for persons who are paupers within the meaning of that term. H. F. Yost, attorney for the poor board, says. he has the decisions of | Judge Shaffer of Allegheny county, and | other jurists, in support of the board’s | present position, and that no further | bills of that character will be paid un- less by order of the court. Every Town Should Advertise. One of the first requisites of a good business man, in this age of mercantile activity, is that he should understand the art of advertising. The same rules that govern private concerns should govern the business affairs of cities. Every civilized town that has indus- trial aspirations and hopes to grow and prosper, must needs let the world know what it has to offer by way of in- ducements. Manufacturing enterprises, educational institutions, business and professional men are ever seeking de- sirable locations, and it is a noticeable fact that comparatively few cities and towns are attracting them. This is be- cause many towns which possess good water-power, good shipping facilities, good school and residential advantages, lack the life and enterprise to let the world know what they possess. They do not grow because they are unknown They are like the drowsy merchant who doesn’t think it worth while to ad- vertise, but prefers to sit and watch the spiders spin webs across his door- way. Every new enterprise that lo- cates in a town adds to the prosperity and business possibilities of every deal- er in the place, and every citizen who has his own good and the good of the community at heart should take a hand in getting his town into touch with the busy, wide-awake world, says an ex- change, and it’s all true. Nemesis After the Repudiators. Within the last 50 years 10 of the Southern states of this Union have borrowed $300,000,000 from trusting in- vestors in this country and in Europe, and repudiated their indebtedness. The swindle was made possible by the constitutional provision that prevents states from being sued by citizens of other states. After the lapse of years Nemesis seems likely to overtake the repudiators. A holder of 10 repudiated bonds of North Carolina donated them to the state of South Dakota. The state of South Dakota accepted the gift and brought suit on the bonds against the state of North Carolina. The Su- preme Court of the United States re- cently gave judgment in favor of the plantiff for the amount of the bonds and accrued interest, amounting to $27,400, and decreed that unless North Carolina shall pay up before January 1, 1906, certain property belonging to that state shall be seized and sold at auction to satisfy the claim. It may be taken for granted that if South Dakota had acquired the bands by purchase, instead of as a gift, the judgment would have been the same. Here is a chance for some speculative state to make a lot of money. The outstand- ing repudiated bonds with accrued in- terest amount to about $600,000,000, and the claims can be bought at a very low figure indeed.—Rochester Democrat. Duquesne Wreck Engine. One of the exhibits in the Transpor- tation building at the World’s Fair in St. Louis that will be of more than un- | usual interest to the thousands who visit the exposition, and especially those from this section, will be the big At- lantic type locomotive, No. 1465, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which was wrecked at Laurel Run, last De- cember 23rd, when sixty-five passen gers and trainmen met death in the worst, railroad wreck in the history of the B. & O. road. The big locomotive. since the terrible disaster, has been in the Glenwood shops undergoing re- pairs, and has just been turned out af- ter several months, and last week made the flrzt trip over the Pirtsburg division since the fatal night last De- cember. The big iron horse has been freshly painted and varnished, and few would know that it had figured in one of the most disastrous railroad wrecks in the history of railroading. The locomotive will be sent tq the St. Louis Fair in a few days, and will occupy a prominent place among the modern railroad engines of the present age as a type of the passenger locomo- tive used in the service of the Balti- more & Ohio railroad. The engine weighs 90 tons, and is one of the largest in the world. The monster engine has been chris- tened the “Missouri,” which is painted in large gilt letters on the tank and cab, and also ground in the glass of the headlight. Ancient Plutocrats. The multimillionaire and the billion- aire are not the exclusive products of modern civilization, a8 sO many seem to think. It has been figured out that the wealth of the Pharach whom Joseph served was at least $3,000,000, 000; which is three times the amount credited to John D. Rockefeller, the richest man of this age. Various other “plutocrats” who existed prior to the Christian era were placed in the bil- lionaire list, and Croesus was by no means the only man in his class. So this talk about the twentieth century being the billionaire age may as well be discontinued. a few billionaires now, there is no doubt that on the whole wealth is far more equably distributed than ever be- fore.—Troy Times.
